Bringing a medical device to market can often involve complex technology and specific expertise. Often, two companies combine efforts, and when the collaboration involves joint technology development and regulatory approvals, the relationship may extend for a long period of time. These types of agreements can get complex because the IP and FDA rights have not yet been created and there are distinct IP issues that must be considered in parallel with the FDA regulatory process and obligations. This webinar will cover the key IP and FDA terms in medical device development and licensing agreements and will provide practical advice on typical issues and pitfalls that may arise. Regulatory, industry, and FDA attorneys will gain insight into typical IP and commercial issues and IP attorneys will gain a better understanding of FDA considerations.
